there should be some changes. learn from what happened at sandy hook. i feel really bad. >> eric: the president outlined a series of proposals including closing background check loopholes,be banning military style assault weapons and high capacity magazines, making schools safer and increasing access to mental health services. he then signed 23 separate executive actions. so let's start with the emotional appeal first. we'll get to the proposals in a second. what do you think about the president using kids as a backdrop. take it around the table, starting with you, ange. >> andrea: it's a p.r. stunt. whether it's a shrewd one or not. the publicbe will decide. it did think it was a little obviousbe when he released the letters to the children to the "associated press" before the press conference. one from a girl named julia. it seemed sophisticated for a young girl to write. it said i know you are supposed to go through congress but i'd like you to get something done for the united states. tough to be against a letter like that. >> eric: look, they want to sustain the momentum, as tragic as it i

the whole fight over sandy relief package, you know he lives by that advice. >> "starting point" with soledad o'brien starts right now. >>> our "starting point," lying and cheating, years of denials, lance armstrong comes clean and admits to oprah winfrey he used performance-enhancing drugs to win all seven of his tour de france titles. >> did you ever take banned substances to enhance your cycling performance? >> yes. >> is it enough? what about all of the stuff he left out? we'll examine his confession point by point. and john eustice and niccole cook and betsey andreu, lance called her a liar after she testified he was doping. >>> new developments in the attempted rescue of hostages in algeria. including americans. we'll have details in leave report ahead this morning. >>> wall street rising, s & p closes at a five-year high. what's behind the big boost. >>> the mystery behind manti te'o and his emergenimaginary girlfriend. >>> ray kelly will join us, janet robinson, newtown connecticut superintendent of schools and actress angie harmon. friday, january 18th. "starting point"

who say that the sandy hook tragedy was a hoax. the real purpose was to create a political environment to take away all our guns. the american public is largely on board with at least some of the president's agenda. in a new nbc news/"wall street journal" poll, more than half, 56%, say laws covering the sale of firearms should be stricter. so what realistically can the president do? david corn is washington bureau chief for "mother jones," joy reid is managing editor of thegrio.com, and both are msnbc political analysts. joy, how large should he be looking? >> i think the president needs to go in with a large package obviously, but when you talk to individual lawmakers, particularly on the house side, you get the sense two things have to happen. first of all, something has to pass the senate. that theoretically could be large, but the house is going to be a much tougher sled, although i was speaking with a couple lawmakers yesterday who seemed to think parts of what the president wants could actually pass in the house. things that are pretty much noncontroversial, things like universal

. and his plan to help victims of natural disasters like sandy. >>> plus, story everyone is talking about this morning. one of the top college football players in the country, a helpless victim of a sick joke? or was he part of this elaborate hoax? >>> first, a look ahead at the president's schedule. kind of quiet now. getting set for the big inaugural festivities that begin this weekend. no word yet on whether he is going to formally get that chief of staff designation. that may not happen until after the oath. you're watching "the daily rundown" only on msnbc. ♪ but i won't back down [ female announcer ] are you really getting salon quality... or settling for wannabes? stop compromising! new vidal sassoon pro series. care and styling from the original salon genius, created to let you have it all at an affordable price. new vidal sassoon lets you say no to compromise and yes to very shiny... very silky... very sexy... very you. it's salon genius in a bottle! now in your store. new vidal sassoon pro series. salon genius. brilliantly priced. is efficiently absorbed in small continuous am

is the largest timber company, it has it all, especially ahead of the hurricane sandy rebuild. we took profits. that said, if this stock goes down two or three points, we'll be right back in there buying it hand over fist. i'm itching to buy it ahead. but no one ever got hurt taking a profit. here's the bottom line. don't tell me this earnings season is a bust when it's only just begun. i actually like what i've been hearing. i'm actually on the calls unlike everybody else i hear criticizing. they're not doing this level of homework. going forward next week, buy some stocks j & j, 3m and especially honeywell. the rest, including apple, sit back and listen and then we'll make the decisions, informed decisions up before the quarters. jeff in nebraska. jeff? >> caller: jim, boo-yah. >> boo-yah, jeff. >> caller: thanks for taking my call. >> same. >> caller: appreciate the heads up on celgene, $83, i turned a profit. >> thank you, thank you! you're the first person who has admitted that the guy didn't come on the show and chase -- he gave the exact same presentation he gave here except that was 20

happened the other day with sandy. it was democrats that got that bill over the line. but, you know, it should be working together for all of the american people, and right now all the polls are showing the american people, including nra members, including gun owners, are saying we should be doing something. one of the things that we noticed, most people, nra members, gun owners, didn't know that everybody was not going through a background check. they didn't realize that 40% of gun owners are getting their guns without going through a background check. these are all law-abiding citizens when they go to buy their guns. why isn't everybody else? that's what we're fighting for, and the president is not trying to be a king. he's trying to save lives. >> we're getting a mixed message from the right, but here is the crazier talk. already there's pushback to the potential of new federal gun laws in the states highlighted on your screen. for example, state lawmakers in wyoming, texas, and tennessee proposed outlawing any enforcement of these laws. that's nullification, pre-civil war talk.

on how much ammo i can buy. all of these things, the biggest point wouldn't prevent another sandy hook or aurora. he kept reloading. i didn't matter limit of the magazine. >> bob: dianne feinstein, remember, she was the one who went to city hall and found harvey milk and mayor moscone murdered by a crazy man on a twinkie high. his name was white. and she was blooded when she came in and made the announcement. i think it may have been a reflection on that. secondly, greg says -- >> eric: can i ask you? what the heck are you talking about? what the heck are you talking about? her definition of assault weapons because of something -- >> bob: no, what she was thinking is her thinking may have evolved. after she wentbe through that, she probably did feel a sense she needed to get a gun. >> eric: you don't think she would be more inclined -- >> bob: she said she would. if it was close when she became mayor, i'd say yes. >> andrea: so when it happens to them and they're threatened all of a sudden it changes. anyone who wants to espouse the second amendment says i want to prevent it from happe

. >> reporter: good morning, paula and john. after the sandy hook elementary tragedy, president obama said the nation needs to change. yesterday, he outlined what he's going to do and what he'll push congress to do to prevent future gun violence. the tragic deaths of 20 schoolchildren at sandy hook elementary made america pause and reconsider its relationship with guns. and with children who had written him letters about gun violence, president obama announced the most sweeping push for gun control in decades. >> this is our first task as a society, keeping our children safe. >> reporter: 11-year-old julia stokes wrote to the president. the only person she thought could make a difference. >> she said, i know that laws have to be passed by congress, but i beg you to try very hard. julia, i will try very hard. >> reporter: he's going to have to. the president is up against a congress that's very reluctant to pass comprehensive gun control. to get the ball rolling, mr. obama signed 23 executive actions that don't need approval by lawmakers. they include -- strengthening the national criminal

. in the room with him were a number of parents of children killed in the sandy hook elementary school in newtown, connecticut, including lynn and chris mcdonnell, the parents of grace mcdonnell. president obama spoke about grace today. >> and when i visited newtown last month, i spent some private time with many of the families who lost their children that day. and one was the family of grace mcdonnell. grace's parents are here. grace was 7 years old when she was struck down. just a gorgeous, caring, joyful little girl. i'm told she loved pink. she loved the beach. she dreamed of becoming a painter. and so just before i left chris, her father gave me one of her paintings. and i hung it in my private study just off the oval office. and every time i look at this painting, i think about grace. and i think about the life that she lived and the life that lay ahead of her. and most of all, i think about how when it comes to protecting the most vulnerable among us, we must act now. >> you may remember i interviewed grace's parents days after the killing. they gave me a copy of that same draw

from hurricane sandy. we're a leading global insurance company, based right here in america. we've repaid every dollar america lent us. everything, plus a profit of more than $22 billion. for the american people. thank you, america. helping people recover and rebuild -- that's what we do. now let's bring on tomorrow. and these come together, one thing you can depend on is that these will come together. delicious and wholesome. some combinations were just meant to be. tomato soup from campbell's. it's amazing what soup can do. >>> outspoken gun control advocate michael bloomberg, the mayor of new york will address the u.s. conference of mayors in just a couple of hours. on the first day of their gathering, vice president biden gave the mayors a pep talk. >> we're going to take this fight to the halls of congress. we're going to take it beyond that. we're going to take it to the american people. we're going to go around the country making our case and we're going to let the voices -- the voice of the american people be heard. >> meantime, that controversial nra ad that cites the o

from super storm sandy. the midwest dealing with the devastating drought. i mean, is there an area on climate change where republicans can find some common ground with the president and isn't the economic issue on the side of change? >> well, you know, it isn't a matter of arguing whether or not one believes or does not believe in climate change. it really is can he sell these initiatives in this economic environment. by about a two to one margin, people view the issue of energy as an economic issue rather than an environmental issue. so it isn't a matter of arguing whether climate change, if you believe it or not, is about in this economy can he sell that. given the state of the economy, given that families are struggling with cost of living, with energy and utility costs being a key driver of that, i think that will be a tough sell for him beyond his base. >> ladies, more to come on this. thank you so much. >> thank you. >>> also making news this morning, record-breaking snow and freezing temperatures. lake-effect snow is slamming the great lakes. some in the snow belt could have

of this, of course, in the wake of the shootings across the country especially in sandy hook and connecticut. >> with us is freshman amanda vasquez who was in english class when she heard shots ring out. how are you doing tonight? >> i'm feeling a lot better than i was earlier, of course. around family. >> i can't imagine. can you take us through what happened, what you saw, what you heard? >> i was waiting on my english class to start. it was about five minutes before it started. and all of a sudden i heard about six shots down the hallway. i started hearing people shouting and running, people just running. and i immediately tried to get under the desk, you know, tried to hide. of course, did what my instinct was telling me to do. there were people coming into our room seeking shelter. the gun or the altercation that was going on and a lady, she was training to be an emt or something like that. she took charge immediately. and was like, everybody, you need to get over here so that if the gunman looks in here, he doesn't see you. and turned off the lights, put the table by th

responders who were there for hurricane sandy and it featured them along with some models wearing some new york collection items. now the magazine said when the storm hit, the city's bravest and finest punched back. now with the area on the mend we paid them a visit, dressed in the best of new york collections. the photos shot by annie liebowitz. what do you think about these photos? donnie, you're an image guy. >> why not? why is it okay to take shots because of football stars and not our heroes? >> some think it's vulgar. >> why is it vulgar? we're celebrating them. >> some people thought they weren't celebrating them. >> using them as a marketing tool to sell these fashion items. >> some people are still suffering the devastation of sandy. when you look at the photographs it's like pay more attention to us. >> should they not go on talk shows? these are heroes. why can't we celebrate them? >> while so many people are still trying to recover, they've lost their homes and all their belongings, do they want to see the marketing of high-fashion items next to these first responders? >> by th

carefully after the bump up from hurricane sandy, it came right back down. that's a good sign that people are not getting fired. and second, an underrated index, the index of leading economic indicators. you saw the slump, that slump was around the middle the year as the whole economy was worrisome but look how well it's come back towards the back end the year. that i think is part of the scenario that we'll grow faster than we have. look at house, retail sales, look at manufacturing, look at other indicators, they've ended the past year pretty good and they are starting the new year pretty well, 2.5%, it ain't the greatest i rather have 5%. leapt us move on. big day for democratic senator diane feinstein. ban 150 types of hand guns and rifles. over time dry up the entire supply of weapons. while she's at it she forgot say that she's in complete violation of the second amendment. this is over the edge stuff with all due respect to miss feinstein. we'll be right back to cover it. . >>> welcome back to "the kudlow report." i'm larry kudlow. in this half hour you can say we didn't warn you.

. man: and now we're helping the east coast recover from hurricane sandy. we're a leading global insurance company, based right here in america. we've repaid every dollar america lent us. everything plus a profit of more than $22 billion. for the american people. thank you, america. helping people recover and rebuild -- that's what we do. now let's bring on tomorrow. >> schieffer: welcome back to face the nation. this is not only inauguration weekend but monday is the birthday of martin luther king jr so we're going to talk about that too. today on face the nation. and joining us secretary rice has agreed to stay around. pulitzer prize winning author taylor branch whose new book is called the king years. historic moments in the civil rights movement. also with us the top aide to lyndon johnson back when he passed all that civil rights legislation. james peterson from lehigh university. i should also note that mr. califono is a member of the cbs corporate board. the only other member of the board to appear on face the nation i believe is walter cronkite. >> good company schieffer

superstorm sandy may not have enough heat. >> and we are just freezing here. >> reporter: one reason warming centers are springing up in cold weather cities, giving the most vulnerable, young and old, some relief. >> i haven't had hot water and heat for three days. yesterday a little bit of heat came on. the only heat that we got was in the bathroom. >> reporter: in syracuse, a heavy downfall lowering visibility, giving snow blowers a workout, making it tough for postal carriers to get from house to house. >> hopefully the driveway will already be plowed when i get back. >> reporter: in iowa city, iowa, just 1 degree above zero. a dog shelter begging for help after a heater broke down. extra blankets needed to keep the cement floors warm for man's best friend. >> it's a stressful environment. we're trying to keep them as comfortable as we can. >> reporter: outside pittsburgh, when a water main broke in the middle of the night, single digit temperatures turned gushing water into a sheet of ice. subzero temps aren't all bad if you like ice boating. skimming across the ice at speeds up to 60 mi

since 1995, disruptions to the oil and gas units by sandy and weaker than expected performance in credit. right now, carl, i have to send it back to you. >> mary thompson joining us talking ge. again, morgan stanley, the comments from sharon about ge, about margins and industrial growth, and also the dreamliner getting attention today. >> simon? >> there is a lot of back slapping here. we've got our first trade on the norwegian cruise lines. remember, the indicative price range was $16 to $18 a share, they priced above that at $19. now it's open at $25. so for those that are selling at the open there, it is a relatively small float, a huge initial profit. and this will be real good news for apollo, which is the venture capital part of the ownership structure. they basically rushed this ipo through very, very quickly, within a week, maybe ten days, in order to capture the higher valuations that you have with the likes of royal caribbean or carnival. they didn't even do a european road show. they just kept it focused on the united states. i'm told, the rumor is it was 15 times over subscri

by the house last week that would send more than $50 billion in aid to states devastated by superstorm sandy. the senate passed a similar package last month but had to go over it because speaker boehner refused to put it up. it past last week with 49 republicans voting in favor of the measure. >>> how is this for a wake-up call a woman from st. george, utah, is lucky to be alive after a large boulder came crashing through her bedroom. this happened saturday morning. won da denthalter suffered a broken jaw, brokenster numb and leg injuries. she and her husband, who was not home at the time, are staying in the hotel. geologist warned them the cliff above their rented home appears to be unstable. nice work by the geologist. >> lucky for her, barely escaping death on that one. >>> so she rose to the supreme court after a tough life growing up in the projects in the bronx, her new book "sonia sotomayor" talks about the path and the people who helped her become the woman she is today. she shares her thoughts from mother hood to parenting, her book called "my beloved world" and i had a chance to si

on that. we had the big sandy relief bill, $60 billion of mostly pork barrel spending, republicans blinked on that. now we have the debt kraoerblgs it looks like the president will get his way on that at least for now. i've been in washington for a longtime, 25 years covering the debt deals and the budget deals. what is frustrating about this is that the only time i can recall over the last 25 years congress has had to get serious about cutting spending and reducing the deficit is when they are at the point of this debt ceiling, and the president says we don't want to use that any more as a kind of point of emphasis, and i think that is a mistake, because what it means is we're never going to get serious about the debt unless we use the debt ceiling as that point where we make a deal to reduce the spending. martha: very distressing. matt, steve, thank you very much, guys. we'll see where this goes. we'll see you soon. >> thanks. >> thank you, martha. bill: 13 minutes before the hour and just about everyone is watching their taxes go higher. why is a famous protkpwoefrl and a pretty good on

. >> after snowstorm sandy. and being together and working together, republican and democrat. you asked, what i have liked to have more of in the inauguration address, it would have been the spirit that you saw with christie and obama. and i like the fact that after that, republicans, instead of being peeved at him, oh, my gosh, you helped o o eed out th guy, they liked it -- >> well, they were forced. >> i think the most important speech that chris christie has given was at the reagan library, where he talked about compromise and leadership. and he said, that's the way -- it's not complicated, how you get things done. you get things done through compromise and leadership. and compromise has been a totally dirty word inside the republican party here. >> it's strange. something's wrong. >> if you can keep that theme going, it's very important. >> does it begin anew tomorrow. wrap it up with your thoughts on the rnc meeting tomorrow. >> like i said, we want to be successful. and i feel like what you've seen out of the republicans over the last couple of days is a much smarter approach, to focus
